Note From Author; This book is a trigger warning, please read with care.
Acid
I owe the club my life.
They saved me when I was ready to give up.
Growing up in our household was tough; it choked me,
but the club gave me a lifeline, gave me hope.
Just like she did.
But then she lost her hero, and she was hurting.
She wanted to forget, but I pushed her away.
She deserved better than me, and I ensured she knew that,
Until she distanced herself from me, and I missed her.
I fought to keep her in my life until I gave in to temptation.
I regretted it instantly because I knew I needed all of her when she deserved better.
Then I messed up.
She hates me and wants nothing to do with me.
Even when her life is put in danger, she refuses my help.
But she’s mine, she always has been,
And no one hurts what’s mine.
One way or another, I will slay our demons and win her heart back.
Mark my words.
Perrie
He has always been the boy I knew I couldn’t have,
The boy who was running from his demons.
My father helped him, trained him, and he became my friend.
But I was selfish; I wanted more; I wanted him.
I lost my hero, and he was there, so I took my chance, needing to forget,
Just for a moment.
But he knocked me back, and I distanced myself.
I became someone I didn’t recognize, trying to save my father’s legacy.
Suddenly, he wanted me, and I jumped, believing this was it,
I finally get my happily ever after, that my past doesn’t define me.
Only for him to destroy me, tearing my cold, dead heart in two,
Making me realize you can only count on one person,
Yourself.
Even when my life is put in danger, and he finds out, I push him away.
But suddenly, he’s everywhere I turn.
I know I dealt with worse, and it doesn’t matter how much he tries,
I knock him back each time,
Because clearly, he didn’t get the memo when he came running back,
The girl he once knew is gone, and she’s not returning.

Return To YouRomance · Charlotte McGinlay
Noah
I knew she was mine the moment I laid eyes on her.
Even at the tender age of fourteen.
Her dark green eyes captivated me and ensured she was all I could see.
She was the reason why I breathed,
But then I listened to someone else, someone I trusted.
I didn't find out the facts and left without a word,
Too focused on my pain.

But I was wrong.
I broke her, destroyed the trust she had in me, in us.
I came home for her, to make her mine, but only to realize how much I had truly messed up.
She thinks I'll give up.
She thinks I'll walk away again.
But she's wrong.
She's the melody in my world, and it's time she realizes,
I'm returning to her one way or another.
Rose
Ever thought you had it all, that nothing could stop you?
Friends, family, a love that consumes you.
I did until he left.
Without a word, he destroyed my whole world,
Leaving me to fend for myself when I needed him the most.
Music and women were all he cared about,
All while I struggled to get through school.
For two years, I tried to forget him and ignore his words on the radio.
I left my hometown adamant to succeed without the weight of my family's last name.
But then suddenly, the same day I returned for my father,
I bump into him.
Some say it's fate, while I believe it's hell.
He wants me back; he wants us back.
But he wrecked what we could have had; he broke my trust.
I try and evade him at every turn but he's relentless.
I don't give in though.
I'm more stubborn than I ever used to be,
And forgiveness is something I don't think I'm willing to hand out willingly.
Good luck trying to win me around, Noah,
Because I'm not one of your groupies and you broke.
